The monthly Board of Education meeting on June 21, 2021, will begin at 6 p.m. at Butterfield School, 1441 W. Lake St., Libertyville.  

Stakeholders may attend the meeting but seating capacity will be limited to about 25 people because about 25 seats are required for board members, administrators, teachers, and other necessary personnel. Face masks and social distancing will be required for all people attending the meeting. 

The District 70 community may watch the live stream of the meeting. The meeting also will be recorded, and the link will be posted on the District website within 48 hours after the meeting.

The District 70 school board values public participation. Community members and staff will also be able to participate remotely in the live meeting on June 21, 2021, by:

However, due to the space limitations of District 70’s current phone system, voice messages will have a maximum of three (3) minutes allowed.

Based on the number of written comments and voice messages received, to preserve time for the School Board to conduct all of its business, the Board President may summarize the comments or may read only such portions of the comments aloud as time permits, then make the written comments available on the District’s website after the meeting.

The D70 Calendar for the 2020-21 school year (updated 2.22.21)

District 70 is pivoting quickly during the pandemic. Some very important information will be sent out via text because it will need your immediate attention. An email also will follow these important messages. 

By law, however, you must opt-in to receive the information via text by texting 67587 with either Y or YES as the message you send. (This will not be activated for 48-hours from when you opt-in.) This text (SMS) service only will be used in the event when very important information needs to be shared with you.  

District 70 created an eLearning Plan to replace Emergency Days through the next three school years, 2020-2023.  

The plan allows District 70 to use eLearning days, instead of Emergency Days (such as Snow Days), so that students can continue to learn remotely.

The state mandates that five emergency days are built into the school calendar to accommodate emergency school closures due to inclement weather or other events beyond our control (flooding, school power outages, etc.).  The emergency days are built into the school calendar at the end of every school year.

The eLearning Plan, approved by the school board and the Regional Office of education, allows students to learn remotely when schools have to be closed and also will allow the school year to end on a set date without being extended to accommodate the built-in emergency days.
